I wouldn't say virtualbox is totally non-free, just that damn open watcom  
compiler part for the most part. and yes, virtualbox is non-free, (it was  
only free ifrom 4.0 till 4.2.)


Virt-manager is what I use, its easy to figure out and it has none of  
virtualbox's bloat.


Qemu is a lot harder than virt-manager though.

ChanceH, VirtualBox is totally nonfree according to the Parabola  
"your-freedom" blacklist. :)

In Parabola run this below,
sudo pacman -Su --noconfirm --needed qemu kvm xen libvirt virt-install  
virt-manager

You should have missed Xen in a reply. :)
However, any other libre virtualizations other than QEMU, KVM, Xen, LibVirt,  
virt-install, virt-manager?

Debian has easy instructions to go by.

https://wiki.debian.org/KVM

All I did to get Trisquel run in a Virtual Machine was to install these  
packages.


sudo apt install qemu-kvm libvirt-clients libvirt-daemon-system

sudo apt install virt-manager


sudo apt install libvirt-daemon

Recently, I had a "default network error". Here's the fix.

sudo virsh net-start default

Virt-manager is a good one.

QEMU/KVM should do the trick. Here's Trisquel in a QEMU/KVM Virtual Machine.

[Trisquel-users] VirtualBox? Or Libre Alternatives

2018-11-15 Thread chelmuth1
I notice that VB does not seem to be present in the repositories. I would  
assume this is because it is not properly libre? Either way, I am still  
interested in using virtualization for testing out things, so what would my  
alternative be, or how would I go about adding VB?


Thankyou
